Hello. I'm currently in the process of building a new pc, and I'm having some problems. Initially i couldn't get power at all, but I fixed this after re attaching all the wires. After i powered the pc on, I got no beep from the system speaker. I changed the ram priority, and recieved 3 long beeps from the speaker. I tried it with each individual stick by itself in different slots, as well as the other ram priorities, to no avail.

Does this indicate a ram problem, or something else? This is my first build so forgive any noobishness.

Intel core i5 6600k cpu
8gb ddr4 2400 g.skill ripjaws memory
Hyper 212 evo cpu cooler
Z170m extreme4 motherboard
Evga 600b psu
Adata 240gb ssd

I think three beeps is usually a RAM fault. Which makes sense, if you messed with your RAM. I would make sure all of your components are compatible with your ram. Maybe trying other ram you have around?
